Probably me. Especially considering I tested the horses' electric fence the other day by touching it and waiting until I got zapped. I got zapped. Then the barn owner told me I could have used her fence tester...

Can't tell you here how we tested them when we were younger. It was a rite of passage lol

Me, I've done it before. I stuck my tongue on a fire hydrant when I was little. I freaked out and just ripped it off (ouch) I couldn't taste anything for a really long time.
I win the stupidity contest.

And similar to sticking you tongue to a frozen flag pole, you only did it once.

My younger sister loves the gruffalo “movies” as she calls them . She’s not even very young (she’s ten), but she’s loved them for a long time.
